Paul Gasol's shot was about time, Duncan and Pau Gasol landed one after another, and the basketball also landed, and the basketball didn't touch anything.

Pau Gasol made a key three-pointer and actually shot three without sticking.

When the basketball landed, the Spurs players jumped up and cheered as if they had won another championship, and the New Orleans arena resounded with a sigh of regret!

Today's match was a success except for the final blow. But it's a pity that in the last blow, the Pelicans didn't deal with the details, the tactics didn't succeed, Li Feng didn't receive the ball, Pau Gasol and his teammates didn't have enough tacit understanding, and the Pelicans actually died on the details and mistakes!

When Li Feng saw the last situation, he was also extremely frustrated and scolded in Chinese, although no one on the scene could understand it! But now everyone understands that Li Feng's mood must be very frustrated.

Pau Gasol, who lost the ball, was also a little distraught, and walked towards the players' tunnel in great disgrace.

In the opener, the Pelicans lost the first game, losing in a crucial fit.

Although Li Feng was very depressed just now, when the reporter blocked Li Feng on the sidelines and asked Li Feng what he thought of this game, Li Feng actually said with a smile:

"I'm very satisfied with today's game, everyone said that they were very good, and every teammate was very good."

Li Feng has to say this when he loses, he just doesn't want to put pressure on his teammates, the newly formed players need to go through hardships, and they also need careful care, Li Feng, as the pillar of the team, has the obligation to shelter the new teammates.

At this time, the TNT reporter did not expect Li Feng to be so "open-minded", and the question did not reach the reporter's goal, so the reporter quickly changed the topic and asked Li Feng:

"Li Feng, about the last ball, what do you think of Pau Gasol's handling?"

Li Feng blinked his eyes and said:

"The final ball was my responsibility, it was my ball, but I didn't get in the right position. Pau Gasol's handling behind it was already perfect. It's that I didn't grasp my teammates' intentions. ”

Li Feng also covered for his teammates on this issue, although the reporter didn't believe it, but Li Feng said that he had no choice.

Li Feng turned his head and left the court and entered the locker room, where the Pelicans' locker room was filled with a sense of missing out on the jackpot.

They had a chance to take out Spurs, but someone missed the time during the draw, which was worse than not having a chance to win the jackpot.

The locker room was full of frustration and missing something, Li Feng walked in and didn't speak, and began to change clothes when he got to his locker. Li Feng's casual appearance here made Pau Gasol feel a little uncomfortable, so he came over and said to Li Feng:

"Li Feng. The last ball! ”

Li Feng didn't wait for Pau Gasol to finish speaking before interrupting him:

"What's wrong with the last ball! Aren't they all gone? ”

Li Feng turned his head and raised his voice, so that his voice could be heard in the entire locker room:

"It's over, it's over! If you can't let it go, it's a heart disease, and if you let it go, there's nothing to do. I'll just call back next time. ”

Li Feng took off his clothes as he spoke, and shouted:

"Let's go! Take a shower and go! ”

Li Feng's open-minded demeanor immediately moved Pau Gasol and several new signings in the team.

This is the real boss, who can afford to take it and put it down.

In front of the media, the responsibility is carried alone, and there is no pressure on everyone when they come back. Instead, he persuaded everyone to follow him.

Following this kind of boss, these players suddenly felt that the future was bright, and they followed Li Feng naked to take a bath one by one.

Does Li Feng want to scold people at this time? Think. There were a lot of mistakes in the team, and he couldn't bear it. But now is not the time to scold, when the team becomes a whole, he will not let go of scolding when he has the capital.

Now the key for the Pelicans is not to hold on to those mistakes. It's about playing with heart, and that's the most important thing.

After taking a shower, Li Feng happily took his new teammates to a press conference, and Li Feng's new teammates said all the good things at the press conference. Then take the responsibility of a qiē on your own body.

Such Li Feng also won the unanimous recognition of the New Orleans media and fans.

After the game, although the Pelicans lost, they received more praise.

Fans praise the passion of this team, the showmanship of this team, the new Pelicans play better and the offense is smoother.

The media praised the atmosphere of the new Pelicans, Li Feng, the boss, is good enough, can lead the team, can play singles, and can take responsibility, such a leader will inevitably lead the team further.

Experts like the current Pelicans lineup, Stephen Corey is a cute god, needless to say, Pau Gasol and Danny Granger are also coming to the second spring.

The game was lost, but the Pelicans unexpectedly won the approval of almost everyone.

In this case, the Pelicans are not miserable at all, Van Gundy has nothing special to say, and Liu Qiyu is basically satisfied with the team.

One day off, the Pelicans ushered in a team that also changed dramatically in the summer, that is, the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Timberwolves sent away Love to rebuild in the summer, but unlike the Pelicans, the Timberwolves aim for the Cavaliers to compete for the championship every year.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the game officially began, and none of the three major American broadcasters came to broadcast today's game.

Because they all felt that the Timberwolves were not strong enough, only the local Minnesota TV station did the broadcast, CCA. V also did a broadcast in China.

The guests invited by the Timberwolves before the game were Szzerbiak and Sprewell, both of whom were veterans of the Timberwolves during the Garnett era.

Before the game, Sprewell said boredly:

"Today's game, I think we are very difficult, the Pelicans are very good on the inside this season, and there are a lot of great players, but our side is obviously a lot thinner than them."

Sprewell was a bit pessimistic before the game, after all, the Timberwolves' lineup is just like that.

Szczebiak's mentality is better:

"We're in a period of transition and it's a matter of course to be unstable, but that doesn't give up hope, we still have a lot of talented players in our squad."

Szzambiak's words still have a point, the current Timberwolves are indeed not short of talent, Wiggins' scoring ability, Thaddeus Young's distance and running off the ball. Rubio's general, although the Timberwolves' backcourt personnel are piled up, there is no shortage of good players.

When the two of them were chatting, in the live broadcast room in the capital, Mr. Sun Zhengping and Xu Jicheng were also gossiping.

At this time, I heard Sun Zhengping pull his throat and say in a lengthened tone:

"Today, the Pelicans' winning side is still very big, because what, because the Timberwolves' backcourt is more chaotic, and now they still haven't straightened out the relationship between a few guards, who does what? Who does what? They didn't comb at all. ”

"And then the inside, the Timberwolves' inside is also a mess. Not only do they have no one, they don't know how to use it yet, in this case the Pelicans have a very big chance of winning, but today Li Feng may not be able to brush up a good number of jù, because since last season Li Feng is no longer keen on brushing up on jù, but more keen on passing, more keen on commanding teammates loudly, and now he is in the role of a commander, because he is not a fierce general who charges into battle. ”

Sun Zhengping's mouth was crooked. Just pull out the most reasons why fans listen to it and like to hear it.

Xu Jicheng also said with a smile on the side:

"So you think the Pelicans won today?"

"That's not it, there's no sure win in the world, if the Timberwolves have a lot of young players going crazy. I can't watch this game either. ”

Sure enough, it was the leader, and in the end, Sun Zhengping refused to take the next death lightly.

Just a moment later, the starting lineups of both teams came out, and the starting lineup on the Pelicans' side was point guard Corry. Scoring guard Granger, small forward Li Feng, power forward Al Jefferson. Center Pau Gasol.

Today Van Gundy changed another routine, letting Pau Gasol play center, and Granger entered the start, mainly to see the weakness of the Timberwolves under the basket.

The starting lineup on the Timberwolves' side is point guard Ricky Rubio, Andrew Wiggins after scoring, small forward Thaddeus Young, power forward Anthony Bennett, and Gulgui Dien.

In the opening game, Dean and Pau Gasol fought for the ball, but the Spanish Great White Bear did not jump at all, and the passionate Dean pointed the basketball into Rubio's hand.

Dean has made amazing progress in the Timberwolves in recent years, and last year everyone was more skeptical of Dean's level, but now Dean is one of the most efficient young interior lines in the league, and he is now no exaggeration to say that he is the biggest reliance on the Timberwolves' interior line.

Rubio won the basketball and didn't go fast towards the Pelicans' halfcourt.

Although the head coach of the Timberwolves has been replaced by Philip Sanders, the old coach of the previous Garnett period, the style of play is still basically the same as the style of play in the Rambis era a few years ago, and Rambis designed a very beautiful set of passing and jumper tactics for the Timberwolves back then.

This tactic is still in use today, mainly because the Timberwolves' personnel structure has not changed much, and the Timberwolves are still a team that relies heavily on jump shots to score.

Rubio arrived in the frontcourt and immediately asked for Bennett's high pick-and-roll, then stepped up, broke through in one step, and then passed the basketball to Thaddeus Young on the wing.

Thaddeus Young took the ball and passed the ball non-stop to Dean who pulled out, Dean received the ball and took a step to cover Wiggins, Wiggins bypassed Li Feng and threw a 2-point pull-up jump shot.

2 points cast.

Wiggins fired the first shot for the Timberwolves, a set of offensive moves that started with a pick-and-roll, then made quick passes and cuts.

The Timberwolves didn't play chaotically at the beginning, and at this time Xu Jicheng said on the side:

"The Timberwolves are playing well, and looking at it this way, the Pelicans are not easy to win."

Sun Zhengping listened to Xu Jicheng praise the Timberwolves on the side, but he was not happy, the leader crooked his mouth and began to pull again.

"The Timberwolves' offense is indeed not bad, but what they are bad at is defense, you will know it when you look at their defense for a while, and recently the Timberwolves have changed formations and coaches, and the team's spirit can't be kneaded together, no matter how strong a team is, if you don't have the heart to hold this thing, it won't work."

Mr. Sun Zhengping, a basketball "expert", likes to argue with others very much, and of course prefers to argue and win others.

The Timberwolves scored two points, and the Pelicans immediately came back, and the Pelicans' tactics were actually no better than the Timberwolves.

Blocking passes isn't bad either. At this time, the Pelicans' tactical foundation is not as good as that of the Timberwolves, but the victory is that they have the backbone, Li Feng has a firm foothold here, and the thoughts of the whole team are stable.

The Pelicans are really better than the Timberwolves, and that's why they have a backbone.

At this time, Corey came over and threw the ball to Li Feng, who looked inside and saw that Al Jefferson had already stuck Bennett.

Li Feng had to seize this opportunity. He immediately passed the ball to Al Jefferson.

After getting Li Feng's pass, Al Jefferson leaned Bennett, and then suddenly turned around and turned back to shoot a wipe board.

Bennett was at a loss behind Al Jefferson, and the Pelicans scored a simple two-point shot.

Seeing this scene, Sun Zhengping smiled meaningfully at Xu Jicheng, and here at the stadium in Minnesota, Sprewell also smiled at Szebiak, the same smile, Sun Zhengping, who was different, was very proud, and Sprewell was very helpless.

Sanders stood on the sidelines and saw Bennett like this, and he began to want to shout something. But considering Bennett's character, Sanders gave up on roaring, which was ineffective for Bennett, and he should know that.

Rubio just organized the team to play a beautiful one. was in a good mood, but when I got to the backcourt, I saw Bennett being blown up lightly, and my heart sank, and then I thought about my situation. Rubio was bitter in his heart.

Rubio is a white point guard, a pure white point guard, the typical white point guard.

What does this mean? Rubio is very well-rounded, very smart, can break through, can shoot from a distance, the organization is also first-class, and the blocking and dismantling tactics are also very professional.

Love left Rubio didn't want to be here, he threw the basketball to Wiggins at halftime, and let Wiggins go alone to pick up Li Feng, Wiggins is a good young man and a good pull-up jump pitcher, but you let him go to the dangerous Li Feng, this thing is a bit hanging, but others feel hanging, Wiggins himself doesn't feel it.

Wiggins has always been a fearless scoring bandit, as long as he is on the court, he is going to kill, Wiggins is like this, he can't score, and he is uncomfortable anywhere, so now even in the face of Li Feng, this guy still rushes up in one step and throws a three-point shot with a stop-and-go jumper.

It's just that Li Feng jumped higher than him, and blocked from behind.

"Snap" and pulled the basketball down.

Li Feng pulled the basketball down in an instant, and then Corey took the ball and quickly advanced towards the Timberwolves' half, the Timberwolves' interior defense was relatively lax, but the backcourt moved very fast.

By the time Corey ran to the place, the three Timberwolves backcourt had already returned, so Corey could only return the basketball to Li Feng, Li Feng didn't pause when he took the ball, took a step forward, made a shooting action, and then watched Thaddeus Young and Wiggins pounce on Li Feng together.

But at this time, Li Feng came to a fake throw, and the basketball route of his hand changed, and it was stuffed to Pau Gasol who was plugged in the road.

Pau Gasol came up with the ball, put one shoulder on Dean and threw a small hook.

The basketball easily fell into the Timberwolves' basket, the Timberwolves were pressed and beaten by the Pelicans at the beginning, and the Pelicans opened with two balls, and the advantage was obvious.

At this time, Sanders could only let the team shout twice to restore order, but now the Timberwolves are in such chaos that everyone doesn't know if they can stay and what position everyone will play.

In this case, Sanders' roar had little effect, as the team was distracted.

The Timberwolves got the ball again, and the original beautiful passing tactics didn't come out, and Wiggins was a little more honest after being blocked by Li Feng.

Rubio came up and took advantage of the high cover and stepped back to shoot a jumper.

Rubio's shooting level is actually improving, the basketball has entered the Pelicans' basket cleanly, and the Timberwolves still need to rely on outside shots to score now.

However, just after Rubio scored, the Pelicans turned around, and Li Feng immediately sent the basketball to Al Jefferson on the inside again.

From the very beginning of the game, the Pelicans seized Bennett's point and hit him to the death, and whoever touched Bennett would shoot.

On the defensive end, they can often complete beautiful defense, although the Pelicans' hand is simple, but the efficiency is not low, compared with the Pelicans, the Timberwolves count on jump shots on the offensive end. And Li Feng, as the gate on the outside, also closed Wiggins, the Timberwolves' most scoring team.

As a result, the two teams played in the middle of the first quarter, and the Pelicans led the Timberwolves by 6 points, 17-11, the Timberwolves played very hard, very unsmooth, and Wiggins's containment was very uncomfortable for the current Timberwolves.

It's time for that. Sanders glanced at the bench and thought to himself:

"That's it anyway, why don't you just go to Williams."

Sanders made a ruthless substitution and replaced Rubio with Mo Williams, and as soon as Mo Williams came on the field, he heard cheers on both sides of the court.

is different from domestic voices, in recent years, it has been rumored that the older you are, the more demonic you are, and it is actually very popular, especially in the disruptive war.

So now Minnesota fans are very much looking forward to Mo Williams coming to play, and Mo Williams is on the court.

The Timberwolves played a sudden spontane. Williams changed the pace, and the whole team rushed to the Pelicans' half as if they were equipped with gears.

Li Feng was the first to catch up with Williams from behind, and Li Feng thought very clearly. Now the Timberwolves are playing well because of the arrival of Williams Mo, the speed of Serena Mohames is fast, if he can strangle Serena Williams, the Timberwolves will still be finished.

Li Feng killed Mo Williams from the side, and he also sensed it. But Mo Williams was not afraid, only to see Mo Williams suddenly dribble behind him, and his body behind him twisted extremely abnormally. Suddenly twisted to the other side of Li Feng, and by the time Li Feng turned around, Mo Williams had already started flying.

Li Feng is not afraid to slap Williams's ball when it bounces and flies compared to others, but Williams Mo Williams twisted again in the sky, his waist was like a machine, twisted to another angle, and at the same time held the ball with both hands to dodge Li Feng's cover, and the big hook shook the basketball into the Pelicans' basket.

After the score, Mo Williams landed and yelled excitedly, running towards his teammates as he yelled.

After being pressed by the Pelicans for so long, Mo Williams attacked as soon as he came up, and then immediately singled out Li Feng, which immediately aroused the morale of the Timberwolves.

Mo Williams roared, the Timberwolves' morale soared, and the target center was cheering.

On the domestic side, Mr. Sun Zhengping also stretched his voice and said with a unique leadership accent:

"Mo Williams is too fast these two times, Li Feng is already fast enough, when Li Feng was in the capital, I trained to see it, and that speed was fast enough, but this Mo Williams was able to escape from Li Feng's palm, how fast this guy is, it's really amazing."

Xu Jicheng also said on the side:

"Xiao Mo was killed by the United Arab Emirates."

Domestic broadcasters have seen it, and this talent of Mo Williams is as clear as an island in the ocean.

Mo Williams scored in front of Li Feng, Li Feng looked sideways at Mo Williams for a long time, Li Feng has rarely been beaten so easily now.

Williams Mohams was a challenge for Li Feng, and this challenge came so suddenly that Li Feng was a little caught off guard, but it also surprised Li Feng, because he had never met such an opponent before.

The Pelicans advanced from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and Corey immediately threw the basketball to Li Feng.

Li Feng finally did not pass the basketball to Al Jefferson this time, but controlled the ball himself and took a posture on the outside to play alone.

The Timberwolves came to defend Li Feng today with Thaddeus Young, after all, Wiggins was born by Big Mom and wanted to go to the golden soup spoon.

So today, before the game, Sanders handed over the task of defending Li Feng to Thaddeus Young.

Thaddeus Young has a good physique, as a small forward moves quickly, has excellent physical condition, and shoots steadily from a long distance, just that's it, the most striking thing is that Thaddeus Young is a natural team player, empty-handed running is cunning like a fox, and the nose of frontcourt rebounds is like a hunting dog, and the grasp of timing is also safe.

This player was born for the team, if he goes to the Jazz of the old Sloan, the old Sloan can go crazy with joy, where to find this kind of wing player with extraordinary talent, who can run, can grab, can defend, and can shoot, just the old Sloan's set of off-ball tactics is simply designed for Thaddeus Young.

It's a pity that the most suitable people don't go to the most suitable places, (to be continued......)
